Cross of the Dutchman is an action adventure game based on the true story of the folk legend 'Pier Gerlofs Donia'. The story takes place in medieval Western Europe, in the province of Frisia, near the turn of the 16th century. Though Pier and his family lived in peace, the world around them was changing for the worse. Saxxon legions were invading nearby villages, making the lives of the native people next to impossible. On one faithful day, Pier got involved with the Saxxon oppressors, escalating the situation for the worse. The events portrayed in this great adventure caused Pier to gather a band of farmers and form a front against the oppressors. The acts that followed made Pier into the legend he is known for, the Cross of the Dutchman.
Just last Friday, we were invited to the Motion Capture studio Gameship, where we were offered a full day of motion capturing for Cross of the Dutchman. If that wasn’t enough, Arjen Meijer (who by the way is one of our first backers) has arranged for Mishael Lopes Cardozo to perform the movements. Mishael is a world champion and master in the arts of medieval sword fighting. I can safely say that the material we shot that day was nothing short of amazing. With these animations shot, we’re confident that there will be movements in Cross of the Dutchman that are unlike any other game that features sword fighting.
WoO dit is zo uber Awesome!
Man Ik zou willen dat ik met jullie samen zou kunnen werken. This game is gonna be amazing.
